Clip-clop~
The crisp sound of horse hooves, accompanied by the breath of the cold wind, echoed above the streets, whether in the old city district or the new one, the Dawn Church was always right next to the City Hall.
In a few minutes, the carriage slowly came to a halt.
By the time Lide got off the carriage, he suddenly realized that he had already visited several places in succession today—
Which was somewhat amusing.
“In the future, it would be better to let these people come to the City Hall for meetings. Running around to find each one like this wastes so much time in a day, or we could just use the Land of Bone-Burying for transfer. Riding in a carriage may look cool, but it’s terribly inefficient.”
Without lingering, he hurried with Harrison past the frenetically ecstatic believers who were nearly in tears and went up to the second floor of the church.
Fortunately, the Sister Flowers, Nile and Nicole, had not gone out and were both present.
After knocking gently on the open door, Lide stepped inside.
Upon seeing the more handsome figure dressed in a woven priest robe, both girls instantly beamed with radiant smiles.
Their smiles, as lovely as blossoms, made the air warm like an early spring, dispelling the chill.
“Good day, Your Excellency.”
“Lord of Kachar City, good day~”
The older sister, Nile, exuded an elegant demeanor. Her white priest gown accentuated her graceful figure, and a faint holy radiance emanated from her, her very womanly charm offset by her pale golden eyes which instilled a sense of pilgrimage in one’s heart, prompting reverence.
The younger sister Nicole had a somewhat mischievous and sprightly air, her large eyes brimming with playfulness, more akin to the naughty little sister next door. Although the two sisters looked quite similar, they were complete opposites in type.
Seeing two girls with such outstanding beauty and temperament, Lide’s exhaustion from his travels instantly vanished.
“Good, you’re both here.”
Lide flashed a sunny smile, unabashedly stepped into the room, and sat down directly on the office sofa, then gestured towards the one opposite him.
Harrison naturally stood by Lide’s side, while Nile and Nicole obediently sat on the sofa across from him, the absence of a table between them making the distance quite close.
Without any needless formalities, he sat down and got straight to the point.
“How is the Dawn Sect doing with its preaching in the Underworld?”
Preaching in the Underworld had to be said to be a bold endeavor.
It was the first time Dawn City had tried stepping out, transitioning from a protected status to facing direct competition of beliefs from the outside.
The Power of Faith was too important, being the source of Divine Power.
For this reason, most sapient races have divines contending for their faith. Humans, of course, need not be mentioned, with sects ranging from those of the Bright Gods to those of the Abyss Evil Gods—nearly every notable divine had their own followers.
Other races were no different; over the long stretch of time, most species had come to embrace their own divine patrons.
Half-Elves even had their own race-specific god—the Half-Body God.
Therefore, with the preaching in the Underworld, Lide had a clear understanding of it. He did not expect this round of preaching to achieve very impressive results; he merely hoped this attempt would reveal problems within the sect, so they could be corrected next time.
However, Nile’s words came as a surprise to Lide.
“Your Excellency, it seems that the process of preaching has gone smoother than I imagined.”
The Divine Priest’s pale golden eyes sparkled with a merry gaze as she looked at her sovereign.
“The Half-Elf sect was completely unprepared for the sudden intrusion of the Dawn Sect and was sluggish to respond.
Furthermore, the teachings of the Half-Elf sect are outdated and tedious, completely unoriginal and sleep-inducing when heard.
Unlike our teachings, the preaching stories you wrote are very popular, especially the one about a talent-dispossessed individual who joins the Dawn Sect and receives guidance from the divine to acquire an ancient heritage. It has become a hot topic within Black Iron Castle.”
